I went to the country

My wife's been sick,
C#
F#
and I am down there with the flu.
The cow's gone dry,

but we're still livin',

so everything's okay.

The hogs took the cholera,
the bees got mad

The mortgage is due and I can't pay

and ate up the beans

they got the turnip greens

so everything's okay

My land's so poor, so hard and yellow

You gotta sit on a sack of fertilizer
to raise an umbrella

so everything's okay

I have to tote the water

about a mile and a quarter

My helper, he quit, for lack of pay

The preacher's comin' Sunday

The can stuff's spoiled,

All we got left is one old billy goat
We're gonna have a new baby

so everything's okay

My crop is rotted in the ground

I asked for another loan,

but the banker turned me down
But we're still livin',

and we're prayin' for better days
B
everything's in pretty good shape.
